Coughing


Baby started coughing end of Sep due to cold. Someone accidentally changed the air-con 1 deg C lower. The coughing continued more than a month. He has a lot of phlegm, which caused him to wheeze and cough. We applied BabyBalsom Vicks on his check and back every night before he sleeps.

Tried all sorts of medicine but unable to totally clear the mucus:
1. Ventamol
2. Dysolvon
3. Bena Expectorant
4. Mucosolvan
5. Asmafen - commented by Pediatrician to have no side effect.
6. Antibiotics
But we found Mucosolvan and Asmafen do helps, and he is willing to drink them.

Finally the Pediatrician said he is allergic to the weather or dust, it is not due to bacteria infection as he has no inflammation. So, we stopped giving him any medicine after the last antibiotics. After the cleaner came to clean the house, it seems effective and his coughing stopped.
